Man I hope we can just be competitive... The Cubs have a combined starting rotation ERA of something like 3.1. I don't believe we have a single starter under 4.5! This could be ugly... :mad:

Cubs return the favor - get two on, then two strikes to end inning

For the third straight game, a Dback gets thrown out trying to advance - this time Segura trying to stretch a single into a double :bang:

Ahmed strikes out again.


Yes, Tomas is 0-2 as well, but at least he is making decent contact. Can't get on if you don't put the ball in play.

Owings butchered that play. Should have been an error.

Tomas gets a hit, Hale decides to pinch-hit Hermann for Ahmed, grounds out.

Hey Chip, Ahmed should be in as a late inning Defensive Replacement.
